For one of my showers my cousin, Rene, gave us an upper case keepsake plaque. This is something you use to capture the size of your little ones hands or feet. We wanted to do this little craft project the first day we had her home but sadly that time came and went. It really is amazing how fast time flys! Anyhow, we decided to do it when she was 5 weeks. The idea was to paint her hands, while she keeps them extended flat and we stamp that on the plaque, creating a beautiful keepsake. WELL - Not the case! Her hands do not lay flat and are like little fists of fury! All clenched and full of springs that snap shut!
We tried really hard to work with them, but it simply didn't work. We opted for the secondary, her feet. They are so darn cute and we are glad to capture them. Here are a few photos of our lovely time!
